The Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard (PCI DSS) must be met by all organisations (merchants and service providers) that transmit, process or store payment card data. The PCI DSS (sometimes referred to as a compliance standard) is not a law. It is a contractual obligation, applied and enforced − by means of fines or other restrictions − directly by the payment providers themselves.

There is a huge amount of information on the PCI DSS freely available, but it doesn't always answer your fundamental questions. Whether you're a manager, executive or director involved in the PCI compliance process as part of your day-to-day activities, you will need these questions answered.

PCI DSS: A Practical Guide to Implementing and Maintaining Compliance, Third edition (www.itgovernance.co.uk/products/1633), a newly revised, practical guide, is a step-by-step guide to achieving PCI DSS compliance - showing you how to create, design and build a PCI compliance framework. It gives entities advice and tips on the entire PCI implementation process, providing a roadmap, helping them to navigate the broad, and sometimes confusing, PCI DSS v2.0, and shows them how to build and maintain a sustainable PCI compliance programme.

With increased guidance on how to ensure your compliance programme is 'sustainable' and based on real-life scenarios it will help you:

• Save time and money with an easy-to-follow route-map to achieving PCI DSS compliance
• Understand the fundamental ins and outs of PCI DSS compliance
• Build your business case for PCI DSS compliance by providing the key information needed.

Alan Calder, CEO of IT Governance adds, 'Published in April this year, and completely updated for the PCI DSS v2.0, this is an essential book for those organisations needing guidance on the implementation of PCI DSS and, on how to remain compliant'.
